You're right, Stacy, they DID grow fast! Pretty flowers & plants you have there! I love your Hostas! Jasper is darn cute too! Thanks for sharing! ~Rosemarie

Thank-you! It is a sweet little shed. The original owner who built both the house and the shed used to make furniture in it. Apparently he could do just about anything. His granddaughter who lived next door many years ago now lives in CT and she and her hubby stopped in a few summers ago and asked if they could see the house and shed now. She was thrilled that I love both. It was the little girl reaching for the stars that I couldn't figure out. :-) I made curtains for my shed windows, too. And a few years ago, I replaced my triple casement over the kitchen sink, and had it recycled to the river side of the shed. If I ever DO get to use it as a little guest house, I'll have fun working on the interior. This pic is before the casement went in. That ash tree that had grown SO close to the shed had to come down first. It kept us warm that winter!

Thanks carol!! I'm a fast reader & not everyone is so many get annoyed with my long texts. My fiancé the most- lol- it means a lot to have your help! I'll let u know when I post my projects. I'll prob post all at once to give an idea of where I'm at. Then, start with one project. I need a day or so to get it all together. Also, I can't stand to say but I have severe adult adhd & don't take meds for it bc I'm a recovering addict. I have to work with it, which will definitely show ( if it hasn't already- lol ) once I start posting my plans, wishes & projects. It is extremely hard, close to impossible for me to stick to one project & work only on it until it's finished bc then, my mind can't see the whole picture plus, my body won't allow it. It's a terrible character defect I have & challenging when I'm gardening but I do get things completed :) I'll prob name the thread *My Florida garden projects* or something Like that - your right , It does take time & is extremely rewarding :) I enjoy gardening & landscaping! I have no experience or background in it besides my own personal trial n error. I'm just a junkie that loves flowers! 18 mo in par helped me kick the habit & 6 years later gardening plays a big role in keeping me clean! My passion started w/1 thought. My thought was, how come everytime I buy a beautiful flowering plant, I kill it . This thought drove me to learn all I could ab gardening & started my passion. I've learned so much since then & still learning . I live, eat & breath gardening! Its exciting & rewarding. I learn something new everyday. It's a passion I keep close to my heart bc it helps keep me clean & humble on a daily basis & Im thankful for that

One step I took this year that helped a ton is that I put out the word on a local entrepreneurs group I belong to which encourages 1:1 meetings with people to ask if anyone would like to do a project swap 1:1 instead of the standard breakfast or lunch. I would be their minion for 2-3 hours on a project of their choice and then another day the same week, they would be my minion for 2-3 hours on a project of my choice. That was hugely helpful in getting some of these done. It's so much more fun (and effective) to work with someone who will just do what you say while you work (move that box, sort those things into piles, etc.)
